Liber Demonica, We Are Legion. A Demon Tempter’s Guide hits a lot of sweet spots for me in its sales pitch. Its vaguely Christian demonology, about pacts with devils, a short zine, cheap, an RPG, and I’ve been on a solo game kick lately. In this one, you play a fledgling demon tempter whose goalContinue reading “We Are Legion: Review”

Five Parsecs from Home Review
Giantmothman reviews Five Parsec from Home, a sci-fi themed solo adventure wargame with RPG elements by @Modiphius
Old School Initiative: House Rule
I’ve been reading some 2e D&D and older RPGs lately, and one idea that jumps out at me as something we might want to revisit is an older method for initiative. Generally, what I’ve seen is asking the players to declare their actions, and then playing things out in the order declared. Some things takeContinue reading “Old School Initiative: House Rule”

Flabbergasted: Review
The fine folks over at the Wanderer’s Tome sent us a copy of Flabbergasted, a hilarious roleplaying game inspired by things like Fawlty Towers and other fascial upper society folks. In Flabbergasted, you take on the role of one of four archetypes, join a social club (maybe a secret one?), and cultivate your reputation whileContinue reading “Flabbergasted: Review”
Lightning Spells: 5e
I’m always surprised by how few lightning themed spells there are in 5e, especially considering how prevalent it is in fiction. I wrote up a few, and buffed core lightning bolt in the hope to see these get some more play, specifically for arcane casters. There’s shocking grasp as a cantrip, witchbolt as a 1st,Continue reading “Lightning Spells: 5e”
Druid Circle of Land: Houserule
I’ve been mulling over a general dissatisfaction with Druids for some time now and I think it boils down not actually feeling like I’m in touch with nature. I landed at the idea of potentially writing a new subclass that’s really in touch with the terrain and the world around them, and got so farContinue reading “Druid Circle of Land: Houserule”

Giantmothman reviews City of Mist, an urban high fantasy, noir TTRPG from Son of Oak Game Studios.
Cy_Borg: Review
Hip gamers will know that Mork Borg is the indie darling of the last few years (See Mothman’s thoughts here). It has spawned endless variants, settings, and add on rules. They even put out their own game license, and essentially let anyone remix and add to it. There’s a lot of stuff you can useContinue reading “Cy_Borg: Review”
